Evaluated like any other API
Most developer infrastructure today can be evaluated the same way: read the documentation, make a test call, decide whether to build on it. Vehicle data has historically worked differently: a sales call, a contract negotiation, and an onboarding process before a developer ever saw a real response.
VinAudit Data is built to be evaluated the standard way: documentation first, sales conversation optional.
What's included
A single API contract covering:
- Vehicle specifications — Trim-level detail by VIN or year/make/model/trim: engine, drivetrain, dimensions, fuel economy, colors, and equipment.
- Vehicle history API — NMVTIS-backed title, accident, and ownership records across the U.S. and Canada.
- Market listings — Active for-sale inventory data pulled from listings across the market.
- Market values — Real-time and historical valuation estimates, including below- and above-market ranges.
- Automotive market data — Broader pricing and trend intelligence for demand forecasting and inventory planning.
- Vehicle images API — Vehicle photos by VIN or year/make/model/trim, with options for pose, color, and background.
- Background removal — Automatically strips and standardizes photo backgrounds for clean, listing-ready images.
- Plate to VIN API — Resolves a license plate and state into a VIN-linked vehicle record, covering all 50 states.
A real request
Here's what a request against the Plate to VIN endpoint looks like:
const res = await fetch(
"https://plate2vin.vinaudit.com/v1/licenselookup?" +
"key=YOUR_API_KEY&plate=LICENSE_PLATE&state=STATE&format=json"
);
const data = await res.json();
Who this is for
Teams building pricing tools, dealer products, lending platforms, insurance workflows, and fleet software, anyone writing code against vehicle data rather than reading it off a static report.
